Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has advised Tinubu to consult the \u2018Noble Dozen\u2019, before picking a running mate for the 2023 presidential election.<\/p>\n

Tinubu became the flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress, APC, after he became victorious in the party\u2019s presidential primaries at Eagles Square, Abuja on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The Islamic group explained that \u2018Noble Dozen\u2019 is the name it gave to the twelve Northern governors who insisted that the South should be given the opportunity to produce President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s successor.<\/p>\n

MURIC made the suggestion in a statement signed by its director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, on Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will like to advise that apart from ensuring that the position of vice president in 2023 goes to the North, Senator Tinubu should consult the \u2018Noble Dozen\u2019,\u201d the group said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose we refer to as the Noble Dozen are those twelve (12) sincere Northern governors who disabused the minds of Nigerians concerning the myth of Northern hegemony and a nonexistent caliphate oligarchy by insisting that APC\u2019s presidential candidate must come from the South. This was a great sacrifice and a noble idea.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey demonstrated statesmanship, patriotism and nobility of thought by that action. \u201c<\/p>\n
